Hi, this is meteorologist Steve Pelletierian. I am the weatherman. Thanks for checking in to theweathermanpodcom on your Wednesday, second day of the month of July 2025. And looking back at the month of June across the eastern seaboard, temperatures were a little bit above normal. You know, for a good balance of the month temperatures were a little bit below normal, but then we had like three or four days of temperatures between 95 and 100. Those three days caused the average temperature to go from about one degree below to about a degree above and you're probably seeing that just about everywhere. Laguardia Airport was the least in New York City. That's where it showed maybe about two-tenths, three-tenths above normal. But Newark, where they have the thermometer basically right along I-95, the Jersey Turnpike, all that warm air from those what is it? Almost 12 lanes of cars moving up and down north and south parallel to the airport there, causes the temperatures to be up a bit. So since they moved that thermometer there from where the old north terminal was, their average temperatures are running about a degree higher than everybody else. So they were 2 to 2.25 degrees above normal.

Rainfall-wise for the Northeast basically was a little bit below. We had a very wet May. June, on the other hand, was about 2 inches 1.5 to 2 inches of rainfall below normal. And of course now we're getting into the season of July and that means most of your thunderstorms produce the rainy conditions outside of the chance of tropical disturbances. Of course we're into hurricane season. That started on June 1st and it's been very quiet, but there might be some tropical disturbances just off the Florida and Carolina coast that may just become a tropical depression or tropical storm over the next several days, but basically it's high pressure that's going to be building into the mid-Atlantic and northeast. So it looks like excellent weather after today on Friday, thursday and Friday and 4th of July looking excellent very low, comfortable humidity, blue sky, fair weather, clouds just an excellent holiday Friday. As we look toward Saturday and Sunday, things start to warm up a bit mid to upper 80s on Saturday, near 90 degrees on Sunday this weekend and then back into the heat and humidity for early next week.

If you are traveling on this Wednesday, it looks like dry weather. In Atlanta, with the frontal system almost stationary. There was some cloud cover, but no major significant weather. Also some light showers, but mostly just partly cloudy in Charlotte and it looks like New York, newark, philadelphia, baltimore are all looking basically okay after some early showers. There might be some delays early in the day but it looks like as the day wears on it dries out. Boston also looking at clouds, maybe a few light showers, but nothing much.

Chicago, also looking at some showers, with a frontal system just on the southern shores of Lake Superior heading down through Wisconsin. That may cause some more showers and thunderstorms in Chicago as we head towards midweek. And Minneapolis. St Paul also a lot of clouds. Another front moving through Might be some showers, but then clearing up for tomorrow and on Friday. Along the Gulf Coast it looks like Louisiana will have some rain at New Orleans. Houston looking dry, dallas just hot and maybe some late-day thunderstorms. Typical scattered showers and thunderstorms off the Florida coast on your Wednesday. West Coast showing dry weather in San Diego, los Angeles and San Francisco. Also dry in Portland and in Seattle. On this Wednesday. I'm your host, steve Feliterio, I am the Weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to you first thing on Thursday with an outlook for the holiday weekend.
